Whether you’re closely involved or just a spectator, the Olympics is an incredibly exciting event. As we all step forward to support our country’s athletes, community spirit is everywhere. There may be no better time to escape to somewhere exotic such as the Aquis Arina Sand Hotel with this year’s Olympic Games being held in London.
With plenty of ways to keep the kids entertained, the best way to enjoy family holidays to Crete is to be active. Why not hold your very own Olympic Games on your Crete holidays, which would be a particularly topical way of doing this. The Aquis Arina Sand Hotel is the perfect place to kick off proceedings, where the swimming pool is just waiting for you to jump in and race. You’ll have a whale of a time racing your parents and siblings, whether you swim crawl, butterfly or breaststroke.
Try your hand at some long jump at the beach and make the most of the wonderfully warm and golden sands. Organise a beach volleyball contest for a more entertaining afternoon.
The Aquis Arina Sand is the ideal choice if you’re looking for ways to re-enact the Olympics during Crete holidays but would prefer to do so from the comfort of your hotel. You can hold a tennis tournament to remember with two flood lit tennis courts. You’ll soon see who has the aces up their sleeves whether you play doubled up, or in serious singles matches.
Whether you like playing the more popular pastimes or you want to try your hand at more unusual Olympics sports such as archery or darts on your Crete holidays, there are many ways that you can enjoy the Olympics while you’re away. You can even enjoy the closing ceremony with a drink in the beautiful beach bar at the Aquis Arina Sand.
